Question

How would you separate the following mixture?
i. Salt and water
ii. Glass powder and iron filings

Answer 1

I. if you provide heat water will evaporate(by evaporation)
ii. iron is magnetic so it can be used by using magnet (magnetic separation)

Answer 2

Answer:

salt and water by simple distillation

glass powder and iron filling

Explanation:

salt and water can be seperated by simple distillation. this method works because water has lower boiling point. when solution is heated water evaporates. it is then cooled and condensed into a seperate beaker leaving the salt behind.

glass powder and iron powder can be seperated by magnetic seperation. when we will use magnet iron filling will be attracted by magnet and iron sticks to magnet leaving glass powder behind.
